Matthew

I was in search of treasure;
searching the field for pleasure.
Sifting from gold and silver
and I found much there.
I was in search of fine pearls.
I was in search of gaining the world.
Drinking from cisterns broken.
I saw you and sold it all.

I could gain the world
oh but lose my soul.
I could gain the whole wide world
oh but what would it matter
I'd give the world to be with you.

Tell me why would I hold on to anything but you?
